This is a follow-up post from my Provident Living post in 2014. As Matt and I have built our food storage, we realized that the handy-dandy sheet we used wasn't as awesome as we thought, mainly because we don't ever use half the stuff we bought (flour, yeast, powdered milk, etc). So now we have pounds and pounds of stuff that's going to expire shortly.
So, I've decided that February will be food storage month. I'm going to make bread from scratch! I'm going to try new recipes that actually use tomato soup or cream of mushroom soup! We won't be eating through everything, but hopefully we can make a dent in our storage before it's too late. Then we'll be building up a whole different food storage based on things we actually eat on a regular basis.
I started out on Sunday by making cinnamon rolls from scratch for the very first time, and they actually turned out okay! Not perfect yet, though, so I'm going to have to give it another go. Then maybe I'll post the revised recipe.
If you have any good bread recipes or ideas on how to use up 5 pounds of peanut butter, let me know.
Rhetorically,

Peanut butter - make ice box cookies (Matt may have the recipe). Go to pamperedchef.com and put in "peanut butter" in the search then look under the "recipes" tab. If you get desperate, see if the humane society or pound would take it; dogs love peanut butter (especially in the "conga" things.
ReplyDeleteAs far as bread, I'll scan and send you a bunch of recipes!
Well done
